THE POINT OF YOUR LIFE – FOR TEENS
“Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events.
It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped.
Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends
forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples
build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”
– Robert Kennedy (1925 – 1968)
FOR TEENS … A POEM
“All the things I didn’t want
Were the things that I was given,
Despite the mess that life can be
I know it’s worth the livin’.
The very things that make me cry
Are the things that make me strong
For You create what’s good and right
From all that has gone wrong.”

EFFECT OF MEDITATION ON YOUR BRAIN
According to the latest new field of study, Neurotheology, as outlined by Dr Andrew Newberg in Principles of Neurotheology – Meditation or Practices that involve concentrating on something over and over again, either through prayer or a mantra-based meditation, tend to activate the frontal lobes, the areas chiefly responsible for directing attention, modulating behavior, and expressing language.
Newberg believes everyone can benefit from some type of meditation practice. If one practice isn’t working for an individual, she should try something else. As a general rule, these practices lower depression, anxiety, and stress. He adds that at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, where he is director of research at the Myrna Brind Center of Integrative Medicine, researchers have found that meditation can improve memory and concentration.
